Business Technology ReviewWhat’s commencing for Australian businesses
Why not your IT provider?
Your IT provider keeps your systems running. We tell your board what it is accountable for.
| Area | Your IT support provider | Tenet CTO |
|---|---|---|
| Main job | Keep desktops, email, networks and Microsoft 365 running | Advise the board on technology, AI and regulatory risk |
| AI | Rolls out tools such as Copilot or chatbots | Governs AI use: policy, register, automated-decision disclosures |
| Regulated experience | Rarely required | Decades running technology in regulated financial services |
| Answers to | Your office manager or IT lead | Your board and owners |
| Independence | Often resells licences and hardware | Builds nothing, resells nothing; any partner commission disclosed in writing |
We work alongside your IT provider, not instead of it.
Fixed-price packages
A small first purchase, signature audits, then ongoing governance. Every package names its artefacts, timeframe and price before work starts.

Nathan Goss
Lead adviser · Tenet CTO, a Velo Group companyNathan Goss brings to Tenet CTO more than 25 years of technology delivery across software and financial services in Australia and the United Kingdom, much of it in highly regulated industries.
Alongside the technical review, the practice carries commercial, industry and regulatory expertise from the financial services side of the table, including a background in stockbroking: how a licensee and its clients actually operate, and what a board will be asked to account for.
The technical review, the judgement on what matters and the signature on the final document are the lead adviser’s own. Partners in the practice contribute commercial and industry input where an engagement calls for it.

How we use AI
How we work
A fixed sequence from first call to signed deliverable. You know the scope, the fee and the delivery date before work starts.
- Step 01
Fit call
A 20-minute call to understand your systems, obligations and the decision you need to make. You leave with a recommended package and a fixed price.
- Step 02
Intake
Requirements captured through structured intake and recorded discovery calls. Repositories and cloud accounts are reviewed read-only in an isolated environment and never retained.
- Step 03
Review
Your adviser works through the codebase, platform or brief against the obligations that apply, and turns the findings into the package’s deliverable, each ranked by regulatory exposure and paired with a remediation.
- Step 04
Sign off
Every deliverable passes a regulatory review against the register, then your adviser signs it and presents it to your board, investors or leadership team.
What goes into every signed deliverable
Sample deliverable: Executive Risk Matrix
Every audit closes with an Executive Risk Matrix. CRITICAL rows come first and each row names its remediation. The rows below are an illustrative format, not a client’s findings.
| Category | Identified risk | Impact | Actionable remediation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shadow AI | Staff uploading client commercial contracts to personal AI tools. | CRITICAL | Deploy an enterprise AI workspace with zero-data-retention and SSO. |
| Platform security | Former staff retain access to the primary production database. | CRITICAL | Implement a central identity provider with automated offboarding. |
| Data loss prevention | Unencrypted payroll spreadsheets sent via external email. | HIGH | Configure sensitivity labels and block unencrypted PII uploads. |
Regulatory register checked: 13 October 2026.
